A Ruling Class judge first gave this corrupt government official, who forged a document in order to frame a man, then entered that forgery into evidence in a FISA hearing, no jail time at all.
The judge's excuse? Well, this criminal lost his job. And might lose his law license. Isn't that punishment enough?...
I think the average street criminal would be surprised to learn that losing your job due to a crime, and maybe losing your Ruling Class Credential of a law license, is punishment enough.
And now -- about that losing his law license part.
He lost it for just one year. The suspension is dated retroactively to August 2020.
A lot of reset buttons being pushed lately.
This country was done when the magic negro got elected.
The corruption oozes from the top down now.
the FIB plants FF, convicts the KNOWN innocent,
lets its own rape children systematically,
lets its own kill witnesses,
and LOVES to let its own take out the elected PRESIDENT
for foreign powers,
while protecting SPECIAL child rapists like
Weiner and Hunter.
Poor children. Poor America.
The magic negro is the one who weaponized the ENTIRE government I HATE that BASTARD!! Republicans had to KNOW this was happening and did NOTHING!! They knew when the IRS went after the tea party and they did NOTHING yet WE keep voting these bastards back into office!! What we have NOW is our fault, BECAUSE we continued to vote the SO CALLED lesser of two evil we now have what we deserve!! Absolutely nauseating!!!
Part of this is Carter Page’s fault. At the sentencing he told the judge he didn’t want Clinesmith to do jail time.
Very strange reaction, but Page always struck me as strange.
Looking at that picture, would you be surprised if in 10-15 years he is arrested for child molestation?
And be hailed as a hero by that very same Ruling Class and its minions
Doesn’t have to be.
Look at the two lawyers that framed Sen Stevens. They withheld exculpatory evidence, were suspended without pay, kept their jobs and sued to get their back pay. And won
Seems to me that this horrible human being should not be allowed to get his law license back until the suspension has reached the average sentence for the crime that he tried to frame this other person with.
Does anyone know how many people are in jail for the fake insurrection? I say fake insurrection because, it was a riot, not an attempt to overthrow the government. That is just silly.
He was working for the liberal democrat cause as is much of the federal worthless gubmint.
From Julie Kelly’s reporting the last couple weeks, I’ve read the number cited as ‘dozens,’ out of more than 500 total arrests.
I don’t think he should ever be allowed to practice law again. When you’re a lawyer - a government lawyer in particular - who gets caught using your privileges as a lawyer trying to frame someone and in the process, actually usurp someone’s civil rights, that should be a permanent prohibition.
Would we allow a doctor who gets caught using his medical license to harm other to keep that medical license? Of course we wouldn’t.
It’s not silly.
It’s despotic.
Another slap in the face...
The Deep State flexing it’s muscles again and showing who is large and in charge.

Does Carter Page have any recourse against Clinesmith by way of a civil suit? If I was in his position I’d want to sue him into the next hemisphere.
Part of this is Carter Page’s fault. At the sentencing he told the judge he didn’t want Clinesmith to do jail time.
So now we’re going to blame the victim of this government assault? No, none of this is Carter Page’s fault.
You can thank the bipartisan nature of the coup for the conduct of the DOJ and Judiciary.
The green light is out on Trump and his supporters. Nothing is a crime if you oppose them. The Deep State have gotten that message loud and clear from “our” elected leaders.
‘Miscarriage of Justice’ as Clinesmith Gets Slap on the Wrist
January 29, 2021

Federal Judge James E. Boasberg, who also presides over the secret Foreign Surveillance Intelligence Court (FISC), sentenced former FBI attorney Kevin Clinesmith to probation instead of prison, as he had requested at his sentencing hearing this morning.
NLPC filed a sentencing memorandum with the court earlier in the week calling upon the judge to incarcerate Clinesmith The government requested three-to-six month prison sentence. Instead, the judge sentenced him to community service and imposed no fine.
“This was a total miscarriage of justice,” fumed NLPC Counsel Paul Kamenar who attended the hearing. “Equal justice demanded at least the same sentence for Clinesmith as was given to Alex van der Zaan, and more, since he held a position of trust,” said Kamenar, who drafted the sentencing memorandum. NLPC also recommended that any probation include requiring Clinesmith to make a video expressing his remorse to be shown to all Department of Justice and FBI attorneys in their ethics training to act as a general deterrence.
In an August 14, 2020, plea agreement with Special Counsel John H. Durham, who was appointed by Attorney General William Barr to investigate the origins of the 2016 Russia collusion probe known as “Crossfire Hurricane,” Clinesmith admitted that he doctored a June 15, 2017, CIA email by adding that Dr. Carter Page, “was not a source” for the CIA in his contacts with Russian sources, when in fact he was a source helping the CIA and had said so publicly. This doctored email led to the issuance of the fourth surveillance warrant against Carter Page.
The judge also allowed Dr. Page to address the court at the hearing to describe the injuries he suffered to his reputation by the illegal surveillance warrant. Dr. Page recounted how the FBI spied on his every move, and how the liberal media, including Rachel Maddow, had referred to him as a traitor. But Dr. Page recommended mercy, which the Judge cited in imposing probation.
In its memorandum, NLPC argued that the judge should reject Clinesmith’s plea for probation because he has suffered enough and that his wife is expecting their first baby. Judge Amy Berman Jackson rejected a similar plea by attorney Alex van der Zaan, the first person to be sentenced by Special Counsel Mueller in 2018 for a similar crime (and whose wife also was expecting) and sentenced him to 30 days in prison and a fine. The government cited van der Zaan’s sentence in its argument to the court today.
NLPC also filed a bar complaint against Clinesmith last September seeking his disbarment. Now that he has been sentenced, the D.C. Bar is expected to move swiftly to disbar Clinesmith, but may go soft on him as did Judge Boasberg.
